There are other colors available from the company as well, by the way. I had never done gradient polish before, and I assumed that a kit would be the best way to start out and get a feel for it. I was SO excited that I immediately did my nails right after I brought it home. Some things that I noticed were:
- The colors (especially the base) go on VERY light. I had to do several coats before I was satisfied with the shade of the base coat.
- The kit is very easy to use. All of the bottles are numbered and the kit comes with a little insert with instructions.
- Once complete, the polish takes FOREVER to dry because of the number of coats required, and because of layering several different colors.
- The polish IS NOT long lasting at all. I had chips in my nails the very next day. :(
- The gradient is very subtle and it was hard to tell that it was a gradient at all. Due to the pigments being so light, the gradient is not very noticeable.
Even at $6-$7, I find this kit to be overpriced for the quality that you end up getting from it. The colors are pretty and it does make doing gradient a breeze, but I feel that the bad outweighs the good in this situation. I give it a score of 2 out of 5.
I will be posting pictures of this polish as soon as I can redo my nails and take some pics. Unfortunately I did not take pictures of them when I did the polish the first time around.
